The ultra-fast time-out issue means there's no point in logging on to this website. Please delete my account. I'll go back to lurking.

That's why I limit my posts to 3 sentences. And I still get logged out. Quick, one more sentence to go ... damn, too late! :(

checkbox-please keep me logged in, right where you sign in.

Some preliminary testing seems to indicate this may work, I stayed logged in for 10 minutes just now, that's first for me!

However, I have already adopted my posting style to the logouts, no one reads walls of text anyway.

I'm really gonna miss complaining about this issue, I got tons of mileage out of it. :)

I have never had this problem. I suspect it's a software and/or internet service issue.

Been here since Napoleon.

Ditto here. I never log out (or get logged out) on any of my devices.

If you click on "remember me" then it should not be a problem.

If you respond to a PM notice or other notification without being logged in then on the error page you get you also must be sure that you checked Remember Me.

If you use an setting in your browser or an app that remembers your login you still have to make sure that the box is checked. Log in from the site if you have problems and that will hopefully colve the problem. Deleting your old bookmark and resaving it after a new login also gets rid of any old and inaccurate login.

You must save cookies for this all to work period! All of these features are dependent on cookies, so you must enable them.

Cookies are not some insidious hacking attack, they have been used since the beginning to allow your browser's cache to recall sites and settings without having to log in over and over and try to remember everything you did there.

And one more thing. If you use a so-called 'privacy browsing' mode then your cookies aren't necessarily going to be saved, so Yes, this will happen to you.

(And you ain't private nohow, the ISP and site still see you, your settings just won't stick or be found in the browser's History)

And Come On! I doubt there is any reason to be a Secret Squirrel here...
